    I was bought a Vita 1000 as a Christmas gift back around 2014 or 2015. I never used it seeing I wasn't really into mobile gaming anymore. It's now 2021 and I'm so glad I decided to never get rid of it and stored it in original box. I have it completely modded with enso now. I definitely recommended the OLED screen. Works beautifully.

    A few other things about the 2000 model for anyone still looking to buy;
    The speakers on it are much, much better than the 1000, and its also a lot lighter than the 1000 model. The shoulder buttons in particular are much tighter and a little more tactile, so they wobble less and have a little more feed back when clicked. The battery is also a little better as well.
    One last thing, If you mod your vita, there is a way to tweak the saturation and such to make the 2000's screen look a lot closer to the OLED screen, to the point where it _almost_ rivals the OLED.

      My OLED vita looks good but in dark scenes I can see these lines across the screen. It’s been like that since I got new. I don’t know if it was a manufactured defect but I use my Slim Vita way more I love it way more and the screen is not as nice but I like how much more light weight it is. Using the OLED vita for an hour my hands start to hurt with the Slim I can game for a like 4 hours and my hands don’t hurt. Plus the screen is way brighter then the OLED.

Bought a 2nd one from a sony factory refurb and its in really nice shape. No scratches on the front and back but some minor scratches on the aluminum looking frame. $129 for these. (MDG in Canada if you're interested). Wanted to use this one to hack and mod first.

  • @ei..
    @ei.. Před rokem +6

    Having used both I actually find the oled screen to be a bit too vivid. It's like they boosted the saturation a lot to show what the oled is capable of. While the lcd screen leans a bit too much to the washed out look I still prefer it. If it's modded you can also change a couple settings which makes it almost as vibrant as the oled. You'd still be missing the perfect blacks, but every other color will look almost as vibrant, and more color accurate. You also get better definition in dark greys without the green noise or mura that you get with the oled.

    I got a new slim vita 2 years ago for 90$, and to be honest, if you don't compare it side by side to the oled vita, the IPS display is actually quite wonderful in its own right. It has very nice natural colors, great viewing angels, minimal ghosting. overall. Get whatever you can find, because you will be pleased either way.

    Just got one recently and went for the LCD one, simply because the OLED display burns in after a while of usage. Sometimes with visible mark spots new from factory... Yes, better screen, but not for too long, unfortunately - or I guess, that was the reason for going with the LCD on the slim version. Also the micro usb is much better than that random proprietary cable that I have no other use for it...

      @@ScutuRC.my God, you're just parroting what you hear from the Internet fear mongering. I have a model 1 Vita which I bought in 2011, with heavy use. I have a Pixel 6a phone, and LG B9 TV, a Switch, all with an OLED screens and constant use, not a shade of burn in. Just Google a CZcamsr called Wulff Den. He left his Switch constantly on for months, without switching it off even for a second, with a static image and burn in only appeared after 36000 hours. How's that to tell you the burn in paranoia is utter bullshit? The first OLED screens back in early 2000s sure, not the Vita, not everything else since. The risk of getting burn in is the same as CRTs and less than plasma. Sony removed the OLED for the slim for costs, it's a known fact, stop dreaming. You got the worse deal, maybe you're fine with your LCD because you got used to it and never put both models side by side, but the difference is night and day, especially the poor LCD they put on the Vita. It has low contrast, sad and washed out colours and the screen persistence is awful, blurring everything when moving the camera fast. Sorry.

    As an OG owner back in '11 and a current 1000/2000 owner... Slim all the way. The form factor, weight, internal memory, matte finish (on my model, anyway) are all exceptional. The screen isn't a problem, no matter what people say. The 1000 was oversaturated and the LCD feels more natural. Plus, the battery life is great. As someone with mild OCD, not having to remove fingerprints all the time is a plus as well. Also, for whatever reason it boots and shuts down faster... not sure why, as the internals are the same.

If you said 1000 your wrong the screen is nice but the thing is bulky and kinda heavy and it hurts my hands after an hour of use. The 2000 is so slim and light I used it for 4 hours straight on a plane and my hands didn’t hurt once. The slim vita the screen is way brighter better too use on sunny days or if you like to game sitting outside.

    When I bought the vita back in 2015 when I was a 14 year old who wanted to spend his savings, I honestly didn’t research and went straight for the slim model without knowing the differences because it was the one on sale. I don’t regret it at all, it still gives me hours of entertainment, games like Uncharted look gorgeous despite the screen not being the OLED one, I don’t have to worry about my charger breaking because it’s micro usb, it’s light and super comfortable, I remember holding the phat vita of one colleague and noticing quite a difference in weight. The only downside I would say I had with it is that in the past couple of months I’ve been experiencing drift in my left analog from time to time, which apparently is a common issue with this model, but ever since I applied some compressed air down the dust guard when recommended, the problem seems to have been fixed. Also, buy screen protectors, scratches love to appear on these things out of nowhere no matter how much you take care of them.

Just didn't come with a memory card so I'm looking into modding it.

    It's definitely worth mentioning that a major drawback of an OLED screen is burn in. If you play games that have static images on the, like a map, there's a chance that it will get burned into the screen. If you've ever had an OLED phone, like a Samsung, you'll notice this if you use the GPS in the car. I've had phones with horrible burn in and will go LCD any day.
    Yes, you can replace it for relatively cheap. I'm technically inclined and could replace the screen without hassle but others who aren't will suffer from having to deal with it. Also, there will come a time where quality replacement parts will become scarce and expensive.
